Ha! That took a bit of forethought to make sure the trip meter lined up with the odometer. Good job!

If only you could have been travelling at 111 mph at the time when the temp was 11F (your being in Seattle kinda precludes 111F, unless you went to Texas to do it)

Still on the original IMS bearing. No metal on the magnetic drain plug or in the filter. They came out with the IMS retrofit 6 months after I put a new clutch in. If I had known it was coming out I would have waited to put in the new clutch. Can't afford to do it now, maybe later when I turn 65 and get my retirement pension.

"Let us know when you get to 222222 & 2.2. "
The next goal will be 123456 & 78.9 miles, only 12365 more miles till that milestone.

"If only you could have been travelling at 111 mph at the time when the temp was 11F (your being in Seattle kinda precludes 111F, unless you went to Texas to do it) "
I doubt I would have had enough time to take the picture at that speed. The odometer would have been rolling by too fast. Might have had a chance at 11 mph though. The coldest temp in Seattle that I can remember was only 17º, that was the same year I got the Boxster. It was so cold the windshield cracked. Lucky me, I got a new windshield for nothing. Thank you State Farm. The old one had a ton of rock chips, so I wasn't sad to see it go.

Very cool! I like how you got the trip mileage to read 1.1 at the same time as 111,111 on the big dial.
